A Fine Quality Late 19th Century, Victorian Period, Burr Walnut Baby Sutherland Table, Of Bold Proportion, Having Superbly Figured Drop Flap Top with Rounded Ends, Raised On Attractive Turned Upright End Supports And Carved Cabriole Legs with Original Porcelain Castors.
Generally Baby Sutherland tables are one of our best selling articles and can be regarded as one of the most elegant, but at the same time incredibly practical pieces of antique 19th century furniture available.
This particular example is veneered with attractive and well figured walnut veneers. Another key feature is the single turned end supports which terminate on true cabriole legs, a feature that is rarely found and commonly regarded as the nicest and most elegant available for this type of table.
It stands at coffee table height, slightly larger in all directions than normal for these tables, which means that with both flaps raised it makes a great portable coffee table with the additional bonus of being able to have its flaps folded down and can be tucked away when not in use, taking up effectively no floor space whatsoever of consequence.
The term “Sutherland Table” is believed to originate from the first full size, non “baby” variants of these tables being named after The Duchess Of Sutherland, Mistress Of The Robes To Queen Victoria.
Circa 1870.
